Thanks For Everything! Headed To The Madden NFL Team as Creative Director

WOW.

Not sure whether to be happy or sad. Madden sure could use the help though.

Good luck at your new gig, Kolbe!

Good Luck Kolbe!

Here is to wishing you the best on MVP 13....errrr, I mean Madden!


(see what I did there?)

Oh I hope you are right.

Best of luck.

Yeah I'm with nomo here:

Eww football!!

Nonetheless though, it's a fantastic opportunity, and I definitely give you my congratulations. From what I hear, the Madden fans will definitely appreciate your arrival.

Also I also live in Orlando, Florida. The bug thing isn't that bad, you just gotta know when not to go out. Right now the insect population is nonexistent, and it won't really surge back up until about April. At which time the only annoying hours are from 5-8 AM, and from 4-7 PM. Love bugs are pretty annoying too, definitely suggest your car has a working air conditioner, because if you are forced to have your windows open you will lose your sanity quite quickly.

Again, best of luck, and congrats!

Congrats, Kolbe! One question - with him becoming creative director, what is happening to Mike Young? I thought he had taken over as creative director after Ian Cummings left?

From one new guy to another, welcome.

PS, how spoiledddddd are you going from SD winters to FLA winters.

Happy for Kolbe, sounds like a promotion or at the very least more money. Can't wait to see the impact that you can have with Madden.

Thanks for everything, good luck. Hopefully Madden will start to gain respect! They need to clone you lol

Hey man, Florida winters are rough. Sometimes it even dips below 60 degrees!!

Kolbe, thanks for helping to bring us the best baseball series ever. The game was already the best back when it took up "The Show" in '06, and has only continued to improve every single year since. While I'm sad to see you leave SCEA SD, I'm sure of two things:

EA will benefit greatly from you being added to the Madden team.

And having met the members of The Show's team in person, I'm confident the game is still in very capable hands.

Thanks for everything and good luck!

my own selfish reasons.....NOOOOOO, I have absolutely no interest in EA Sports after the NCAA Basketball debacle, but good luck and you will be missed.

@everyone concerned with the health and status of the MLB The Show dev team... Don't worry your pretty little faces! I'm just one tiny part of an amazing and talented team. Nobody else is leaving and the game is in good hands! The Show will go on! (I hate myself for that)
